I will not upgrade my diesel to another one when the time comes if there continue to be offerings like the 7.3 gasser available.

I love my truck and I used to think a rebuild would be okay but the body may leave me no choice.
Purchasing a new truck would allow me to move to a dually and larger camper at about the same time I retire. This would suit my anticipated camping schedule. Watch me get whacked by a meteorite on my last day of work : )
